FL H0261

Applies to Congress pursuant to Article V of the U.S. Constitution to call a constitutional convention for the sole purpose of proposing an amendment requiring that all bills passed by Congress embrace only one subject, clearly expressed in the bill's title.

Notes that 41 of the 50 states, including Florida, already have single-subject provisions in their state constitutions and have benefited from the requirement.

Argues that a federal single-subject amendment would limit pork barrel spending, control legislating through riders, limit omnibus legislation, prevent public surprise, and increase institutional accountability of Congress and its members.

Provides that this memorial is automatically revoked and retroactive to its passage date if used to call or support a convention for any purpose other than requiring Congress to embrace the single-subject requirement.

Constitutes a continuing application under Article V until legislatures of at least two-thirds of the states have made applications on the same subject, with copies to be sent to the President, congressional leadership, and Florida's congressional delegation.
